If I want to take the picture of a landscape focused at infinity, considering that light conditions are good, which aperture would you rather set: low aperture/fast shutter or high aperture/slow shutter ? without being at the extreme low aperture ( I know it is better to be 1 stop over the the lower limit).Can the aperture/shutter have an effect on the color, dynamic range ?which aperture would result to the best rendition ?
